Gir's second album Wasted Youth is getting a 6-disc reissue next month, with the original album, rarities and live stuff.

What a random album to get such deluxe treatment.

I like it, don't get me wrong, I'd be curious to hear some of the rarities, if they are unreleased songs and what not...but I was just sort of floored that this record was getting a reissue like that. I can't imagine splurging for something like this though and am curious just how many people out there would be willing to do so for an album like this that makes it lucrative...especially since the regular album itself has recently and finally come back into print.

Now that is the weirdest reissue news I think I've ever heard short of Metallica's shenanigans.

Six discs? Seriously? I don't think I'd have the attention span for that much material, even if it was one of my favorite albums ever, haha.

Yeah, no doubt. I passed on the last few Whitesnake anniversary box sets for this reason. One disc of live material and another of rarities is kind of enough for a deluxe treatment in my opine. When you get to the 5th or 6th disc and it's the "super duper redux strings only mix" of "Still of the Night" my attention span is gone.

I'd be curious as to what fills the 6 discs. Seems overkill and it also seems amazing if the band had 6 albums worth of material they didn't use, well 5 anyways.

Album on one disc, rarities on another, and then probably a bunch of garbage live stuff that no one needs.

I could see maybe if they did a complete boxed set, with both albums, a disc of rarities and one or two live shows.

That would make more sense to me.

There was a dude I got a few boots from years ago that had a 4 or 5 disc set of the band. But that had both albums and a couple live discs as well.

I always wonder how much material a band has "in the vaults" so to speak. Like Gene Simmons talking of the 100 something songs that he could put on a box set. The stuff he actually has released in the last 20 years hasn't been that great so I hold no hope out for a hundred other songs from him. Didn't Tesla tease this idea of a box set a few years back, before the fire?

If you are a band that's been around since the late 70's early 1980's, then maybe you have a bunch of unreleased demos and rare and live; but a band that lasted a few years and had a couple of albums? I don't know.

Today I remembered this reissue and checked it out on Amazon.

The thing only costs $25 (as compared to the single disc recent reissue for $16 new), and the top review (of 2) on Amazon lays out was in the set and he sounds like a long-time fan of the band. Basically you get the album, then a disc of 20 rare tracks, and them some discs of full live shows that have been circulating in boot form.

Still seems like a random album to get this treatment, but for $25, it does seem like a pretty cool package for fans.

Agreed, it seems like a pretty random album to get a super deluxe edition; and three discs plus for $25 (compared to as ingle for $16) is not a bad deal at all.
